Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath lashed out at West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee over the ongoing violence in Murshidabad, stating, "Bengal is burning. The chief minister is silent. She calls rioters 'messengers of peace'." He condemned the state government for not taking action against those inciting unrest over the Waqf (Amendment) Act. "Such anarchy must be brought under control," he added. Adityanath praised the judiciary for deploying central forces and criticized the Congress and Samajwadi Party’s silence. Mamata Banerjee appealed for peace, saying the Waqf law was a central decision, not the state's. Police have arrested 150 rioters so far. (PC: PTI)
